"Mr President, 25 years ago, the Islamic Republic of Iran was founded, leading to the violent infringement of human rights and, in particular, the violation of women’s rights. The question is, whether we are now seeing the start of a similar development in occupied Iraq.
On 29 December, a number of rulings concerning divorces, marriages and children etc. were replaced by Sharia law in the otherwise secular state of Iraq. Now, I hear that the leader of the Organisation of Women's Freedom in Iraq
is under violent attack from Islamic groups. Her name is Yamha Mohammed. I should very much like to ask you to protest, on behalf of Parliament, against the attacks on women’s rights that are now gathering speed in Iraq, and also to protest to the occupying forces, that is to say the alliance of so-called volunteers, against this development."@en1
